This documentary exposes a vast conspiracy to contaminate and control the world's food supply through genetic engineering of food crops. Leading scientists and activists present the facts that you need to know about genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Eighty percent of food sold in North America already has ingredients made of GMOs that have not been adequately tested for safety

Diabetes Research at the McEwen Centre It was at Toronto General Hospital in 1922 that insulin was first administered to a patient, offering a critical lifeline to the worlds diabetics. That proud tradition of discovery continues today at the McEwen Centre, where researchers are committed to finding ways to recreate the complex metabolic functions of the human pancreas and bring new hope to the millions who suffer from diabetes. Stem cell research McEwen Investigators are exploring the process by which stem cells can become specialized pancreatic islet cells.
